《50 ways to say goodbye》的歌詞如下：
Oh-oh-oh
Everybody says we're through
But I can't let you get through
Cause I'm gonna tell you 50 ways
To say goodbye
To say goodbye
Everybody says you're through
But I can't let you get through
Cause I'm gonna tell you 50 ways
To say goodbye
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, baby, I know we had a fight
Now that it's over, I'm feeling right
I'm gonna tell you 50 ways
To say goodbye
To say goodbye
Everybody says you're through
But I can't let you get through
Cause I'm gonna tell you 50 ways
To say goodbye

I want to hold you tight
So here's another 50 ways to say goodbye
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, baby, I want you back again
I want to make up and start again

Everybody says you're through
But I can't let you get through
Cause I'm gonna tell you 50 ways
To say goodbye
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm gonna make up every way that there is to make up
Gonna tell you 50 different ways that I feel about you
So come on baby, don't make me wait too long now baby, cause every way I feel is so good now that it's all wrong
Come on now and give me 50 reasons why, cause it seems to me like there might be just too many goodbyes (come on) Yeah-ah-ah-ah Yeah-ah-ah-ah (say goodbye)
